Suggest An Alternative Of Temazepam

I have been taking small dose (10mg) Temazepam for over 4 years. I am very comfortable with it and i work fulltime. However i used a different pharmacist last week and he gave me a particular brand which i find , certainly not as effective as the ones i usually have (MYLAN or TEVA) I really need to get them changed but will he do it for me . I have the majority of the ones he gave me still sealed in the box with my name on, Brian.
